Missing My Angel
As your mom, I birthed you
And held you in my arms
I cuddled you as I tried
Shielding you from harm.
Many years I have missed
Wishing I could go back
Even though I did not see you
My love for you never lacked.
A few years ago when I met you
was the best day of my life
That filled a missing piece as
My life started to feel right.
The day of your accident
We never left your side
Through tears and prayers
We were hoping you were alright.
The day we had to say goodbye
Definitely shattered us all
When I got home to the kids
All I could do was fall.
It's not the same without you
For this is very hard for me
I did not get enough time
Before you had to leave.
